About the BCCCNPSince 1991, the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) has implemented a comprehensive Breast and Cervical Cancer Control Navigation Program (BCCCNP) through a multi-year grant from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). With these funds, low-income women now have access to life-saving cancer screening services and follow-up care, including cancer treatment if that should be needed. Local Coordinating AgenciesBCCCNP is a state-wide program and services are coordinated through 11 local coordinating agencies (LCAs) and an Upper Peninsula regional coordinator. These agencies have enlisted the cooperation and participation of physicians, hospitals, and other health care organizations in their communities to assure that screening services are scheduled and all necessary follow-up services are provided. LCAs are required to provide or arrange for basic screening services, i.e., screening mammograms, Pap smears, and patient education on the importance of breast and cervical cancer screening services.
Breast Cancer Awareness License Plate The Breast Cancer Awareness plate was introduced in 2014. Money raised by the sale of the plates goes to the Michigan Breast & Cervical Cancer Control Navigation Program (BCCCNP). The BCCCNP provides low-income women access to life-saving cancer screening services and follow-up care. Women diagnosed with breast or cervical cancer may be eligible to receive insurance to cover the cost of their cancer treatment. Since 1991, the program, administered by the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services, has provided screenings to over 656,439 women and diagnosed 4,873 breast cancers and 6,453 cervical cancers. Having access to timely screening services and follow-up care can save lives. To purchase a plate by mail or fax, complete and print the Breast Cancer Awareness License Plate Order Form.
